Do not let a single event define who you are. You may be “The Person Who Failed” at this particular thing today, but you are also “The Person Who Really Tried” today. And you can be “The Person Who Persevered and Tried Again” tomorrow. If you are determined to define yourself as a failure based on a few events, then that is what you will be. You are a failure because you believe it, and you are a success because you believe it. The defining word is Belief.
Challenge your beliefs about yourself today. No one else can do a thing to change them for you: Not Mommy, Daddy, pastor, mentor, spouse, child.
Dare to commit to a radically positive belief in who you are and what you can try. Again and again.
